COLLEGE NOW
Medgar Evers College
Program Overview
College Now is a free collaborative program of the City University of New York(CUNY) and the New York City Department of Education which aims to promote college awareness and strengthen academic preparation in order to expand students’ capacity for a successful transition to college. Students have the opportunity to earn college credits through an array of offered courses at Medgar Evers College. Other classes improve reading, writing, and math skills that are tested on the ELA and Math regents. We also offer workshops and a summer program that challenge the analytical and critical thinking capability of students. Courses and workshops are offered throughout the semester (Fall, Spring, and Summer).
